Sticky posts (a.k.a. “make announcement”)

Reddit Help

One of the tools available to moderators is the ability to “sticky” up to two posts to the top of their community using the “make announcement” button. On desktop, this can be found beneath a post on the comments page, just above the comment field. (On mobile, it will appear beneath each post when you click the “Moderate” button and select “Sticky post.”)

Once you have stickied a post, it will be highlighted in green and remain at the top of your community until you remove the announcement.

Moderators can sticky any post made to their community. This is generally done to ensure heightened visibility. Combining the mod distinguish action with the make announcement action is a common way mods highlight official posts to a community.
